BOOISTB i AOKER Comer Bui vA Xaatoiatrj Street 1 The advent of Parson Dairies and his band of wrestlers has helped to arouse some hopes in local sporting circles that interesi la arenic sport may again become dominant The California Clnh it is nn derstood Trill soon put to a test the question of how far the law Tegulates or prohibits glove contests The past week has been a notably dull one In all classes of indoor and outdoor amusement Local patrons of boxing are chiefly interested atr present in theMc Auliile SlaYin match in England and the opinion strengthens that tha Mission boy will return a winner Kest month the yachtsmen will have several interesting contests that will undoubtedly revive interest in their favorite sport In September the tract athletes will have the best opportunity offered in years to boom amateur athletics the directors of the State Fair Association having included a programme of manly sports in their list of attractions Arenle The recent performance of Ike 0Keii Weir at Buffalo where he whipped Jimmy Conners in short order has restored to the erratic Boston slogger much of the prestige he lost by his defeat in this city Hundreds of those who saw the Spider fall down unhurt before Australian Murphy have never been able to convince them selves that the victory was won squarely and fairly Weirs recent performance helps to increase the doubts of the honesty of his defeat by the Australian but nevertheless the fact is that he met his Waterloo at the California Club involuntarily and unexpectedly Few men would stand the goinggoing over that the Spider gave Murphy in the first six rounds and still keep lighting The Spider who is proverbially a sprinter found in Conners fust the man he was looking for ana after a round had tbe fight all his own wav When thmen came together the Spider began nis monKey Dusraess at once conners looked determined but only managed to set in one good blow in the first round The Spider gave it to him up and down in and out biff ban punch and set away occasionally getting in a few clog sieps ur nnKgun uis juuuy in tne second round the Spider got a stronger nerve up seeing that he had not been hurt and sailed into Conners and srave bimacork inggoing over before the half dazed Buf taiojnan was aware 01 wnat naa Happened Time was called just as Weir gave Conners ft darline left hand jab in the mouth Weir came smiling to the center for the third round Connors was mad andmaae a rush The Spider ducked and whirling caught Conners hard on the eye Then lonowea a rapid succession of ducts rushes and sprints Weir then made a teiht with his left and crosed Conners heavilv with his right The Buffalo man went down like a log His rattle brained seconds got into the ring and helped him up while the crowd around the ring with good reason yelled Foul foull The Spider yelled Sever mind Give him time Conners struggled gamely to his feet The minute he as up the bpider punchedhirp with his right hand knocking him to the floor where he remained unconscious for nearly a minute Weirs reward for winning was 11500 The losers share was 25u At the meeting of the directors or theclub to settle up after the battle Weir and Warren had a scrap Weir was entitled 10 1500 less 1330 that he had received as advance or that he was owing Warren wanted the directors to hold out 73 due him from Weirrsaying that he was satisfied Weir would cheat him if he got a chance The Spider Immediately smashed Warren on the cheek Warren returned the Spiders blow with interest and a rough and tumble fight followed until the I contestants were separated Behave like a gentleman President Griffin said 1 aont preiena to be a gentleman veir rejoined Hostilities ere resumed next morning at the depot when Warren caught vyeir who was about to leave for ngsioii iiu a giuu waicu auu cnaia ana can belonging to Warren The Spider had to give up Warrensproperty and take more punishment than he got in his right with Conners The Buffalo verdict on Weir is the general one viz that except when he is wanted to tight the best place for him is in an iron cage with a chain on him7and his food passed in for him between the bars Tbe Spider encouraged by his victory over Connors has written to the California Club for another chance at Billy Murphy in the event of the authorities per mutins the resumption

Impressions of 1 the East Mr Farley it will be remem bered went to the Atlantic coast commissioned by the California Athletic Club to interview John Sullivan and other notables of the East and if possible bring the negotiations for a meeting between the Boston slogger and tke antipodean colored giant to a successful termination Mr Farleju as became an embassador intrusted with such an important mission placed himself in communication with the roost noted sportsmen of the Atlantic slope He was dined wined and treated generally with extraordinary distinction Everything worth seeing Irom the Hoffman House bar to the Elevated railroad and Castle Garden were revealed to Mr Farley He was allowed to see the great Sullivan himself in one of his moments of undoubted sobriety a treat

Jimmy Carrolls match with Andy Bowen who beat Billr Myer is Sot recorded as a dead thing tor Carroll Jimmy is getting very rapidly into the sere and yellowv In his set to with Martin Murphy in the California Club some weeks ago he showed up very badly and as in Bowen he will meet a sturdy fighter the battle may be another misfortune for me veteran Parson Davies will to nleht at the Orpheum

reach the point where all but Cooley and A Christie rested ten minutes Cooley and Christie just stopped long enough to take a drink and then made tracks for home arriving breast and breast in just forty two minutes Ten minutes later the main division headed by Skillman Kortick and Espinosa spurted in in the order named Cooley and Christie found Green takinglt easy under the trees and brought him along with them Of course their coming in ahead did not count as they should have waited orders from their captain George Jordan before starting for home The only mishap was a tumble which Henry

meetings between their best players and others in the State This is under present conditions difficult to bring about for ordinary matches the distance and time being loo great and also the fact that many of the tournaments are handicaps which the good players shun The meeting at which the best player on this coast north and south Including Nevada and the Northwest States would be expected to try and attend is that where the annual championship contest takes place The United States National Lawn Tennis Association has very wisely designated this city or vicinity as the place to hold this tournament for the past two years and design to do so in the future In doing so they were undoubtedly guided by the fact of our location great zeal of the players good executive management of the tournaments and also that this is the central point for the majority of players We respectfully suggest to Oar and Shell There is considerable activity among the oarsmen at present Earnest training is
